The Garden Express Summer Garden Photo Competition is for the photographs of home gardens incorporating summer flowering plants including shrubs, ground covers, bulbs and perennials on display.

Photos will preferably be of garden images rather than specimen shots of individual in flowers. Photos should show what can be achieved using summer flowering plants, particularly in combination, to enhance a garden. The photos can incorporate plants used in pots or other containers, as well as in the garden.

Photos are not restricted to the range of shrubs, bulbs and perennials available from Garden Express, though the inclusion of such bulbs will be a positive attribute.

One of the criteria is that the garden should be achievable by a typical Australian gardener without unreasonable effort or expertise or expenditure. Ideally the photo would inspire others to try similar ideas in their own garden.
